Recipe: Appetizer: Texas Chipotle Salsa

The smoky heat of the chipotle peppers lends terrific flavor and depth to this easy salsa. Serve with tortilla chips. Makes 3-4 cups.

24 oz. good quality canned chopped tomatoes (can use fresh in season!)
1 cup chopped fresh cilantro
3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons chopped canned chipotle chilies in adobo sauce
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
Salt and pepper to taste

Combine all ingredients. Enjoy!

Wine Skinny Match: We particularly like Hogue Cellar's Chardonnay and Riesling with these!
